About the CV41 Vehicle Mount Computer

The rugged CV41 Vehicle Mount Computer is designed for real-time

data collection applications in warehousing, distribution,

work-in-process, time and attendance, and stationary applications.

The CV41 is highly configurable and runs on the Microsoft®

Windows® Embedded Standard (WES) operating system.

Additionally, the CV41 supports terminal emulation applications,

browser-based applications, and custom applications.

and provides conditioned power to the CV41. All peripheral

connections are also made on the dock. With the CV41 design, you can

easily remove the CV41 from the smart dock and attach it to another

vehicle that is equipped with a dock.
